Time will tell !!!Yes it was just the feel I did not like, strangely I never had a problem on many of the bikes I have ridden fitted with braided lines and when I collected a friends RSV (2005 model) last September and rode it 150 miles back to his house the front brakes with the braided lines felt great with good feedback.

I do know of a few riders who have reverted to the standard lines for the same reason.
